“Several members talked about murdering ‘tyrants’ or ‘taking’ a sitting governor,” an FBI agent said of the alleged scheme.
Federal prosecutors on Thursday announced the arrest of six men who allegedly plotted to violently overthrow the government and kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.
The half a dozen men were arrested Wednesday night after the FBI and Michigan State Police reportedly spent hours raiding a Hartland, Michigan, home. As part of the alleged plot, the group reached out to members of a Michigan militia for help, according to a federal affidavit filed Thursday.
“Several members talked about murdering ‘tyrants’ or ‘taking’ a sitting governor,” an FBI agent wrote in the affidavit, as first reported by The Detroit News. “The group decided they needed to increase their numbers and encouraged each other to talk to their neighbors and spread their message.”
The individuals named in the complaint include Adam Fox, Barry Croft, Ty Garbin, Kaleb Franks, Daniel Harris, and Brandon Caserta. News of the thwarted plot comes amid an ongoing investigation into the death of a Detroit man who was killed during a FBI shootout.
The affidavit states that during the investigation, the FBI became aware that several men, including Croft and Fox, were discussing “the violent overthrow of certain government and law-enforcement components.” During these discussions, the two agreed to “unite others in their cause and take violent action against multiple state governments that they believe are violating the U.S. Constitution.”

That and groups larger than a Squad Size become too vulnerable to Infiltration.
And who knows if the whole thing isn’t just a Psyop/Propaganda exercise?
This is insane. I don’t like the woman but, to plot the kidnapping of her is total insanity. Besides, who wants to listen to her babbling bull crap. It is better we hobble her right where she is at IMO.

So nice to see the FIB on the job setting up false flags and getting Justus for the democRat Marxist Tyrants.
The leader seems to be an Anarchist, rather than a Constitutionalist, but who cares about such distinctions?
The FIB seems incapable of any interest in the Soros fed Antifa or Marxist BLM, but then it’s been their MO since Waco, nothing new just more PR set ups and busts.
